Hi,
The ps is deceptive because when you see 5-10 processes at 10 MB's of memory each, that does not mean mysql is taking 50-100 MB's of memory. A lot of the memory is shared between all mysql processes, so in reality it's really closer to 10-12 megs of memory in total. It's just how ps displays things that is confusing.
Cheers,
Alex
